-- Yi
that's the error message I got following the instructions on
http://www.nobugs.org/developer/yi/building.html
setup: At least the following dependencies are missing:
fingertree -any
make: *** [dist/setup-config] Error 1
Where can I get fingertree from? Do I need a specific version of this
package?
-- Data.ByteString
Where can I read more about GHC options like -XOverloadedStrings or this "::
ByteString" type declaration?
I did not know ByteString was less performant than a linked list of
characters. It is used even in the language shootout benchmark programs.
